Chapter 19

Every esper possessed E-Neurons (ESP Neurons), specialized nerve cells that formed pathways generally invisible to the naked eye. A guide’s energy flowed along these hidden routes, translating into chemical and electrical signals within the esper’s brain and cells. The result was an intoxicating, euphoric high that melted away the rigid, knotted tension in their bodies. This process—where GP, the unique red aura capable of penetrating E-Neurons, soothed and restored these pathways—was known as guiding. But Seo Won could feel it: Hangyeom’s guiding was fundamentally different from what he’d received before his heart transplant.
